Some helpful reminders

> Is the price of shipping included in the price tier?
No shipping costs are not included in the tier.
> When are the threads going to be?
Threads are created only on Fridays/weekends until we get closer to X-mas. The Santas will create them.
> Am I going to be responsible for lost/late gifts this year?
All gift senders MUST provide a tracking number to us this year.
Please send it as a response to your gift assignment. If your post doesn’t provide this service or you cannot afford it, then you must send us a picture of what you’re shipping. If and only if you do this, you will not be responsible for what happens to your gift after you ship it. Your user will be anti-grinched if it does not arrive.
> Do you have any other helpful tips for me?
Start everything early. It will take time to receive your gift and to send it out.
Get stuff bought as soon as possible and ship it as soon as you can.
Pay attention to your local postal service’s guidelines.
Be aware that prices may have increased dramatically since you last shipped something. Holiday price surges are incoming.
SAL mail has been suspended indefinitely, so prepare to plan around that too.
Don’t send a hand-made gift or food if you’re feeling sick.
Don’t go delivering gifts IRL, even if someone lives nearby to you.
And please, do not lewd the Rona-chan.

What's the best hard eggnog recipe? Personally I like a spiced rum.

I finished your card designs just after the thread 404'd last week and had to wait a week to tell you about it!
They've been sent out for production and should arrive in time for me to get them to you with a good bit of leeway in the schedule.

santa I sent you an email. NB from NJ and I were trying to get paired together and it didn't end up happening despite us requesting on our forms. we were wondering if it was possible to forward us each others info/card list so we could send each other cards/cookies on top of what we already have

Cards are more or less done, but I'm gonna add something to compensate for the somewhat, uh, minimalistic approach.

I like making it from scratch but you gotta make sure to use really good eggs for that. As for recipe, well, they're all pretty similar but I'm usually partial to alton brown. altonbrown.com/recipes/eggnog/

How do I participate? I have a few things I've been meaning to sell I can use as gifts

its bait

Read from the top.

AD from the Philippines Your card is all done and will be shipped out at the beginning of next week!
SM from the UK Your gifts are here, but I still need to finish your card.
"P"G from the UK Haven't started working on your card yet, but I definitely will next week...

2/3 of the things I got you have come in so far so I might have your gift shipped out pretty early once I finish your card.

C from Nova Scotia I just shipped your gift earlier today, I also had the santas relay the tracking number. If you see this message, be sure to open the box as soon as you can.
KW from Nova Scotia You have a card on the way. Sent it a few days ago.

J from VA, your gifts arrived at lightning speed earlier this week. I decided to play it safe and sent out your package on Wednesday. You should have gotten it today since tracking confirms it was delivered!

ZT from GA
IP from OK
GK from CA
SL from CO
AW from AZ
Your cards were also sent out over the past few days! SH from NY, do you have any favorite characters from your wishlist? I'll send yours and DL's out on Monday since you both live in the same state. I had a blast making them all, and hopefully they will arrive safely so you can enjoy the Christmas spirit too!

W from CA, your card is finished, but if you're lurking, I'd like to know if I should include the 1/2 number in your address. Santa relayed the message to you; I will mail your card on Monday as well!

Is it?

Doing card template before assignments was a bad idea. Ended up with a more elaborate design than usual (and I still keep “spicing” up design for each card)

0/15 cards done. I’m sorry internationals.

Crappy image-to-model work is done, now to wait til I can get to my 3D printer for my "cards"

Sent my charms to china for printing this week, I'm slightly afraid they misunderstood my order but this cs guy assigned to me is a huge pain to deal with so I'll just wait and pray. They probably won't make it before december anyway but if they fuck it up real bad I hope my anons will enjoy their valentines cards.
Time to stop blogging and start drawing the actual cards.

I feel bad for not finishing my cards but I got COVI'D, I'm barely still alive.

ED or EADII from NC your package should have gotten there today

Do I use my user's names inside their cards? or should I refer to them as user?

I'm working on my cards but I'm worried they're not good enough, I'm definitely trying, but I have absolutely no skill in regards to drawing

Don't feel bad user, get better, a late card is better than no card

Attached: PXL_20201120_025631839.jpg (577x727, 114.4K)

Feel better and put your own health first. Did you contact Santa or the Grunts?

Whichever names you choose are up to you.

I'm doing lithophane ornaments for everyone's cards too. I've never done them before so here's to nothing.

This is bellow the print looking up. Let's hope my printer can defy gravity.

All that's left is to learn how to paint digitally without it looking like something by a 5yo. I'll be sending the cards Monday, and if my assignments are lucky, they will arrive by March.

Get better user! And then work yourself to death making cards!

>first week
>>on it, pumping out stuff for my cards
>second week
>>done literally nothing, and with no end in sight
Demotivation could not have come at a worse time.

Oh no. Get better and don’t worry about the cards... for now.

What level of skill is the expectation for "handcrafted gifts"?

DP from AL, Is you street NE or SE? I'm trying to buy the shipping label on the USPS website and it wont let me buy it for SE which is what I got sent but it accepts it as NE. Stamps.com lets me send it to SE but says its not in that database so if that's the correct address I can try that.

you have opposable thumbs and tried
or you have no arms but can use your feet well
